NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-The movement
in the stock market to-day closely re-
sembled that of yesterday, but the De-
clires were extensive while the rsllYswH s
much stronger, and most stocks ended
the day with small net gains. There
was lots Of news, but the dividend in
Pacific Nail and rumors of & surprise in
Western Union were Of considerable use
in msintainiGg prices. There was o
tendency also TO look upon the favorable
side as regards the action Of the Secre-
tsry of the Treasury tomorrow. At
the opening sales were made ct @
regular change Of small fractions from
yesterdays final pric s. and the market
was quiet with four or five stocks monop-
olizing business. After little hesitation
prices advanced fraction, but again re-
coded with more animation and the mar
ket was carried below the opening, New
England and St. Paul being first in the
rise, and Northern Pacific pre-
ferred, Pacific Mail and Coalers
in the decline. There was g
more decided break in the afternoon
when Western Union Joined the weak
| stocks. The lowest figures were gen
orally reached shortly after ,. m, wher
| the rally became general and & SHARP
upward move resulted, New England
taking the lead. The advance We;
checked only with the close Of business
which was dull and firm at about The
| opening figures.

decided changes in quotations were re
corded
